Idiotic tariffs, indifferent retailers, depraved flippers and AI mania are making the simple act of buying a graphics card the defining misery of PC gaming in 2025.

    Same. I’m happy with my 7900XTX that I bought in 2023.

    These days I only use Amazon for small things, and lately have decided to go back to individual specific websites for whatever it is I need. There’s hardly even a price difference at this point.

      I was looking to get a 7900 XTX, and then once the 5090 released all the sellers jacked the price up on the 7900 XTX to about $1500 USD

        Naturally.

        I’m not gonna lie, it’s really tempting to just sell my 7900XTX for basically what I paid for it ($1000) and pick up a 9070XT for $600 instead. Easy $400 that I can throw at my motorcycle project.
